Billy Bragg's eloquent response to a certain astroturfed, pseudopopulist tune that was making the rounds recently:

Billy Bragg - Rich Men Earning North of a Million
My boy B. always assists me with deliveries. Whenever there is a delivery, he rushes to the door and alerts me with a ceaseless string of borkborkborkborks, then he very generously offers to aid me in opening and sampling the goods which are stored inside the newly arrived boxes, all because he is simply a Very Halpful Boi and not because he is an Extremely Hongry Boi Who Must Have All The Treets

Can you abuse the Force if you're Force Sensitive? As if it were a drug? Can you wield your widdle Midichlorians so that they grant you blissful, carefree euphoria and you just forget about all your Jedi duties and quit practicing hygiene and other problematic consequences typical of addiction in our Galaxy?
As an addict & SW fan, I find myself wondering this kinda often.
Just seems like #TheForce could be "abused" for physical pleasure but I'm not well-informed about Official Canon
#SouthSide is the funniest show I've seen in a very long time. I haven't spent too much time in #Chicago , but I still am able to catch a lot of the Chi-town-specific jokes and references.
S1 Episode 8 was one of the finest pieces of TV I've seen in ages. #JeffTweedy guest stars! and sings a song! and the missing girl *SPOILER WARNING*
was just enjoying a weekend in the country! The whole episode is so good-natured and funny, it lifted my mood quite a bit.

Just watched #ThePeripheral episode 8, which is apparently the FINALE?! WHAT
This show is some very well-done sci-fi, imho. But the finale left me a little confused. So, Flynne had Connor shoot her so that The Jackpot would not go down in their timeline? And then Flynne had her consciousness downloaded to the year 2099 peripheral? all in an effort to save her stub from annihilation?
Oh then there was the Lev Zubov scene at the end. Wtf?

So we have to wait, what, like two years to find out who #Luthen really is? Or what his deal is? Or why he carries around a lightsaber-shaped dealie? Or why he has red lightsaber blades on the Fondor? Or why he is such a mysterious bastard? Or etc etc??....
I was hoping a little light would be shed on his identity before the end of the finale.

Season 2 of ANDOR cannot come soon enough.
#Andor #StarWars
Who is watching #Andor today? I am a few minutes in to the season finale now.
I am gonna miss this show when the season is over. 😢
Hopefully the quality of ANDOR will influence future #StarWars series and encourage showrunners to up their game. The bar has been set very high now.
Hi, everyone. I am new to Mastodon and I look forward to learning how to navigate this place. I mostly want to write about/discuss movies, television, books, and political issues, too. I fled from Twitter, as so many others have, because Elon is an egregious assclown intent upon giving a bigger megaphone to fascists and harming the marginalized.
I welcome conversation of any kind, so please give me a holler if you want to.
